Description

Blodige søndag, eller Bogside-massakren, var en massakre den 30. januar 1972, da britiske soldater skød 26 ubevæbnede civile under en protestmarch i Bogside-området i Derry, Nordirland. Fourten personer døde: tretten blev dræbt med det samme, mens døden af en anden mand fire måneder senere blev tillagt hans kvæstelser. Mange af ofrene blev skudt, mens de flygtede fra soldaterne, og nogle blev skudt, mens de prøvede at hjælpe de sårede. Andre demonstranter blev såret af splinter, gummikanoner eller batoner, to blev kørt ned af britiske hærkøretøjer, og nogle blev tævet. Alle dem, der blev skudt, var katolikker. Marchen var organiseret af Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association for at protestere mod internering uden rettergang. Soldaterne kom fra 1. bataljon af faldskærmsregimentet, den samme bataljon, der var impliceret i Ballymurphy-massakren flere måneder før.
